I’ve been traveling a lot lately. Did indeed hit up Hong Kong, as promised, and Macau, and then Keelung, Jiufen, Baifu this past weekend. I’m far, far behind on my Flickr activity. Tomorrow I have a lot of midterms, so I’ll be inside all evening flipping between studying and tagging and uploading. Honestly, I just … Continue reading

I meant to post this a while back, when the article was current, but never got around to it. Its from an Ars Technica writeup bashing Google’s Second Life wannabe: Apparently, a WordPress theme, Flickr photostream widget, and a Twitter Flash badge aren’t enough to show off one’s personality anymore; I felt that one. May … Continue reading

I know I haven’t been keeping up with new posts, and I’ve gotten yelled at about that quite a bit. I have this morning off, it’s raining outside, and I’ve made tea. I have many hours before I need to be at work for the evening shift, and I will try to bang out entries … Continue reading

Hanging out with a bunch of friends, so don’t have much time for a post, but I thought this warranted special attention. I loves it.

Although I’ve recently renewed my hosting package, there’s been a mixup with some interlocking domains and it makes updating anything on my online space extremely difficult. I hope to get it settled soon, at which point I’ll be back and posting far too often.

I’ve been getting a lot of complaints about every page on this blog loading very slowly lately. I’m trying to fix it. I assure you it is not heavy traffic, as that’s dropped off in the past few days (either due to lack of content or the horrible load times). I’m getting tons of “File … Continue reading

If there’s anything in this world I’ve learned from my bro Nick, it’s the art of griefing n00bz. This is a fundamental life principle. You eat, you breathe, you grief n00bz. Don’t make the mistake of thinking I listed those things in order of importance, though. Apparently some toolbag made a post about how the … Continue reading

OK, so the upgrade went through fine and I didn’t even have to pull the site down to do it. I did have to flash some ugly pages up for several minutes while the database was updating, but hopefully nobody saw that. Next time I promise to sandbox ahead of time, or at least put … Continue reading
